Manifest Law is one of the first AI-native corporate immigration firms in the country, and one of the fastest-growing — proof that attorneys want to practice law this way. Our attorneys handle sophisticated, high-stakes matters, with technology that removes the busywork rather than replacing the lawyer.

Manifest was built to offer the best of both worlds: the scale of a larger firm with the quality client service of a boutique. Manifest OS — the technology that powers the firm — carries the operational weight, so our attorneys spend their time where it actually matters: on strategy, on judgment, on the client in front of them. The result is a practice with the care of a boutique and the capability of a large firm.

We think the practice of law should be a craft, and the attorneys who do it well deserve a practice that grows with them — supported by technology, not replaced by it, with the time and autonomy to build something that's genuinely their own. We're building the kind of institution attorneys are proud to put on their résumé.

This is a firm for attorneys who want more from their career: real ownership of your cases, the kind of client relationships that come from having time with them, a sustainable pace, and a front-row seat in building what a modern immigration practice can look like.

Immigration law has been done the same way for decades. We're here to raise the bar, and we're hiring the people who will raise it with us.

What You'll Do

• Serve as the face of your pod and the first Manifest attorney many prospective clients speak to: run consultations, assess case strength, and recommend the right path forward for extraordinary-ability and high-skilled matters — EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1A.

• Use your legal judgment to assess which prospects have viable cases, build trust quickly, and set honest, clear expectations before a matter moves forward — including telling a prospect diplomatically when their profile isn't yet a fit.

• Run a high volume of consultations and represent Manifest publicly where relevant, from live Q&As to client-facing content, with marketing's support.

• Transition engaged clients smoothly into case production, instilling confidence in the handoff to the attorneys and paralegals who will carry the matter forward.

• Use Manifest's AI tools and technology — not as a shortcut, but as a genuine performance multiplier — to support consistent, high-quality assessments at volume.

• Capture clear, complete consultation notes and recommendations in Manifest's systems so nothing is lost in the handoff.

What We're Looking For

• J.D. and active U.S. bar admission

• Strong working knowledge of extraordinary-ability and high-skilled categories, including EB-1A, EB-2 NIW, and O-1A

• Genuine warmth and sales instinct — you build client trust as quickly and naturally as you demonstrate legal expertise

• Energy for high-volume, day-to-day client contact: you're energized rather than drained by a full consult calendar

• Clear, confident communication — you explain complex legal concepts in plain language and make clients feel heard, even when the news is that their case isn't a fit

• Comfort in a high-cadence environment with real volume expectations

What Changes by Level

Associate (Yrs 0–3)

• Focus: Confidently runs consultations with prospective clients, explains the visa path clearly, assesses case fit, and guides prospective clients toward the right decision, with direct mentorship from senior attorneys.

Mid-Senior Level Associate (Yrs 4–7)

• Focus: Handles complex and borderline cases with sound judgment, sets honest expectations on case strength, and carries difficult conversations well — including telling a prospect their profile may not yet meet the EB-1A or O-1A bar.

Sr. Associate (Yrs 8+)

• Focus: Deep expertise across O-1A, EB-1A, and EB-2 NIW strategy; mentors junior attorneys on consult technique, takes the highest-stakes consultations, and helps shape how the firm assesses case viability.

Why Attorneys Join Manifest

• Higher-agency work | Intake, document collection, status tracking, and client updates run through Manifest OS — the administrative weight of practice, handled. Your day goes to strategy, drafting, and the client: the work that actually requires a lawyer.

• No billable hour | We charge clients flat fees, so there's no timekeeping requirement and no billable target. Your work is judged on outcomes — what gets filed and how clients experience the relationship — not hours recorded.

• Remote by design | The entire legal side of the firm works remotely. It's how the firm was built, and there are no plans to change it — practice from wherever you do your best work.

• Real upside | Pay is competitive from day one, with incentives tied to client outcomes and firm performance, so strong work is rewarded as the practice grows.

• Ground floor | Manifest is an ambitious firm building the infrastructure to last — and to change the way law firms operate. Attorneys who join now grow with it: into senior roles, into leadership, into shaping what the practice becomes next.

• Your experience shapes the practice | Attorney feedback and firsthand case experience directly inform what the firm builds next, so the technology keeps evolving around how the best lawyers actually work.

Ready to Help Redefine Legal Work?

We are not looking for case processors or attorneys waiting for the next rung. We're looking for attorneys who lead through expertise, treat Manifest's technology as a genuine performance multiplier rather than a shortcut, and want to do the most meaningful work of their careers at a firm built for how law should actually work.

The attorneys who thrive here are full-time, deeply client-centered, tech-forward, and mission-driven — energized by building something real, not just joining something finished. If that's you, we want to hear from you.

Compensation & Pay Transparency

This range reflects base compensation and may not include bonus, equity, or other components of total compensation.

Our Use of AI in Recruiting

Manifest uses AI-powered tools to support administrative aspects of our recruitment process, such as organizing applications and surfacing candidate information for review. Some interviews may also be recorded and transcribed using an AI note-taking tool, used solely to support accurate note-taking — it does not score, analyze, or evaluate candidates in any way. These tools do not make hiring decisions, and no candidate is advanced, screened out, or otherwise dispositioned without review by a member of our human recruiting team. You are welcome to ask any interviewer for a non-recorded conversation instead. If you would like to request a reasonable accommodation or an alternative application process at any stage, please contact your recruiter.
